Since 2005 I have been teaching myself to design and assemble handmade greeting cards. I thought I would share this journey by expressing myself and displaying my cards using blogspot.com. So, here goes...it's going to be a bumpy ride, so hold on!

Here is some new work that I did this past week. I've been trying to get to my desk every evening. These cards are from the last few evenings and today.

This card was not a success.It just didn't work for me. The paper matches were off. But, each piece is a learning experience.

This Card was done today. It looks better live. The wings float off the page and reveal the original stamped image of the butterfly both on the paper background as well as under the patterned paper of the butterflies.

Here's that pretty lady again. I found this image to be so enticing that I used her three times...variations on a theme. This picture is enhanced with gold peel-offs. They do make this card pop!
